First of three federal election debates

“Before giving orders, set the example,” said Yves-François Blanchet to Justin Trudeau during a heated first federal election debate in French, ahead of the 2021 federal election. Samsara Rainville reports.

You can see the hate in Trudeau's face when he talks about the Canadians who don't fall in line. Scary.

[ecclesiastesThreeVerseSeven]

We wont force it, we'll just reduce your privileges.

[okaygo]

He wont mandate it, but brides the provinces to do it. He's insane.

[dwgstyle]

So exercising/eating out and having a night life is now only a privilege in Canada how wonderful.

Quebec has 8 million people and gets 2 French language debates the rest of the country gets 1. Why? The math does not check out.

[canadianelite]

He literally said he will limit your freedoms.

[handzus]

How do the GTA Trudeau cheerleaders feel now?

[cannednolan]

Can’t call it a real election debate. You have one party that promotes separatism there. Then completely leave out another party from the debate.

I remember trudeau saying, ”We took on debt, So Canadians didn’t have to”. they should throw that in his face, dumbest thing I’ve ever heard from a PM. who does he think the debt is going to be payed by?

[jamesburke]

Limiting is the same as forcing.
When you threaten my lively hood, you are attempting to force something against my will.

[DarrylSmith]

So out of the 3 debates 2 are in French when most of the country speaks English.

[petertaylor]

I don't need you're INTERPRETATIONS on this debate...totally DISINGENUOUS

[ranojutro]

Did Trudeau said that people that are vaccinated has privileges???
People that are not vaccinated don't your unspeakable privileges, People needs their own rights

[debbiehanisch]

Did someone say they had a parliament that worked? Opposirion tried to question trudeau for 6 yrs. He never answered a question.

[VT-tzbm]

“We won’t force people to get vaccinated.. but we’ll limit their privileges..” See how that works out for you in the end.

[AngelaAsks]

"Privileges"? No. "Rights" allow people to move freely throughout their country.

[vikvinyl]

It's true that Singh has often called Canadians who aren't on side with his thinking, racists. He has literally done it in the House of Commons. Liberals have done the same.

[hamzasyed]

I find it strange that the vast majority of Canadians are Anglophones and yet there are 2 French debates and only 1 English debate? Huh? Not sure how that makes sense.

[AirmanRugby]

Just as a point of reference, for 2015 we had five debates. 2019 and 2021 we’ve had more French debates than English. This is a majority English country…by a lot.

[codymcarthur]

Unfortunate the PPC was not invited and are being silenced. I can't support any of the above. There is only one party that seems to want to bring Canadians back together and that is the PPC. With nothing but Love for ALL Canadians, let's put an end to this madness and take our country back! No more Libs and Cons, we are all people of Canada and need to unite as such. When tyranny becomes law resistance becomes duty. To our military, healthcare workers, educators, small business owners - WE are with you. They aren't.
